Density Meter Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Implementation Type (Process and Lab), Type (Coriolis, Nuclear, Vibrating and Other Types), Usage Type (Portables, Benchtop and Modules), End User (Chemicals, Education/Research, Food and Beverage and Other End Users) and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Density Meter Market is accounted for $1.08 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $1.57 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 6.4% during the forecast period. The density of a liquid, solid or gas can be determined using a density meter. Maintaining the standard of industrial processes necessitates accurate measurement of the densities of liquids, gases, and solids. When converting a mass flow into a volume flow or vice versa, understanding density is also necessary to quantify enormous amounts of fluid. Density meters are crucial tools in a variety of sectors, including the chemical and petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and food and beverage industries.

According to the US Energy Information Association, the United States alone consumes more than 22% of the total world’s petroleum consumption, which accounts for 7.5 billion barrels per year. Thus, the US can become a potential region for the density meter market's growth.

Market Dynamics

Driver

The development of smart factories is propelling the market

The development of smart factories and the rising need for precise density measurements of liquids used in various manufacturing processes are driving factors for the growth of the density meter market. Any industrial operation must have thorough quality assurance encompassing the entire manufacturing process. This goal is frequently achieved through density measurement, particularly in the chemical, pharmaceutical, petrochemical, food, and beverage industries. This enables manufacturers to evaluate raw materials, partially finished goods, finished goods, and production processes in light of various factors. With rising industrialization and demand for energy resources, the oil and gas industry is growing, resulting in increased market revenue for density meters.

Restraint

Inaccurate readings due to certain factors

Density meters are often intricate devices that call for specialized knowledge to operate and interpret the data. To maintain accuracy, they might need calibration and adjustment procedures, which might call for trained personnel or extra resources. Changes in the sample container or measuring environment, electromagnetic interference, or vibrations can all affect density measurements. These elements may introduce noise or interference that will affect the measurement's accuracy and reproducibility.

Opportunity

Strong government regulations regarding density measurement

Strong government rules and regulations regarding density measurement of liquids and gases emitted from manufacturing plants are what drive the global market for density meters. During the forecast period, it is anticipated that the development of smart factories, industrialization, and rising demand for precise fluid density measurement will all contribute to growth.

Threat

High cost of equipment

When compared to other types of analytical instruments, density meters can be quite pricey. For laboratories or industries, the cost of purchasing and maintaining a density meter, including calibration and routine maintenance, can be a significant investment. Such aspects are hindering market growth.

Covid-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic and related global lockdown restrictions had an impact on industrial activities, causing disruptions in global supply chains and manufacturing processes. Under these conditions, numerous industries experienced a sharp decline in sales and profits, which resulted in mass layoffs of workers and employees and a loss of overall industrial production activities. Due to the global lockdown, there has been a decrease in demand for oil and petroleum products, which has an impact on the market because one of the main industries using density meters is the oil and petroleum sector.

The water and wastewater segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

Over the forecast period, the largest market share was held by the water and wastewater segment. The demand for density meters is anticipated to increase due to strict regulations regarding wastewater discharge, particularly industrial wastewater, a lack of readily available potable water, and the popularity of smart water management. Most commonly used in the water and wastewater industries are microwave density meters, ultrasonic concentration meters, and suspended solid/sludge density analyzers.

The portables segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Due to its portability and ability to be used while on the go, the portables segment is anticipated to register lucrative growth over the forecast period. Because of increased technological development, portable devices are now self-explanatory and do not require an instruction manual. The availability of its features, such as automatic sampling, advanced workflow, quick sample entry, and minimizing efforts, created high demand in chemistry applications and food and beverages, where it is boosting the segment's expansion.

Region with largest share

In 2018, Asia-Pacific held the largest market share (44.70%). The demand for density meters in the region is anticipated to rise as a result of the rise in the number of food, beverage, and pharmaceutical companies as well as their focus on growing their operations and manufacturing facilities in the Asia Pacific. India is anticipated to offer a wide range of opportunities in the density meter market as a result of the growth of the process automation industries. Additionally, the region's market for density meters is expanding as a result of government initiatives in the water and wastewater treatment sectors.

Region with highest CAGR

During the forecast period, the North American market for density meters is anticipated to expand rapidly. This is due to the presence of leading companies like Mettler Toledo International Inc., Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Anton Paar GmbH, and Sartorius AG in this region. Additionally, the market in North America is expanding as a result of the growing demand for density meters from a variety of industries, including the food and beverage and pharmaceutical sectors.

Key players in the market

Some of the key players profiled in the Density Meter Market include A.KRœSS Optronic GmbH, Agilent Technologies Inc, Ametek Inc., Anton Paar GmbH, Berthold Technologies GmbH & Co.KG, Emerson Electric Co., Integrated Sensing Systems, Koehler Instrument Company Inc., KRUSS Optronic GmbH, Mettler-Toledo International Inc., nton Paar GmbH, Photonics Analytical B.V., Red Meters LLC, Rhosonics Analytical B.V., Rudolph Research Analytical, Schmidt + Haensch GmbH & Co., TA Instruments Inc, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Toshiba Infrastructure Systems & Solutions Corporation, Ultimo Measurement, VWR International, LLC and Yokogawa Electric Corporation.

Key Developments

In August 2022, Emerson announced opening a facility in Cumbernauld, Scotland, equipped with engineering, development, and manufacturing resources for sensor, mechanical, electronics, and software design for the company's gas analysis portfolio. The new gas analysis solutions center is to support industrial manufacturers in achieving their decarbonization and environmental sustainability goals, including the deployment of low-carbon fuels and power sources, reducing emissions, and decreasing waste.

In February 2022, Anton Paar partnered with EZD. The partnership activities involve material testing. In collaboration with EZD, Anton Paar drives the high-precision measurement technology, and the instruments offer precision and reliability.
